Growing at a glance…
Propogate by seed in early spring to early summer. Sow 1-2cm deep and the same apart in rows apart. Thin seedlings to 5-10cm apart which can be transplanted or eaten. Ensure the location is nice and sunny. If you prefer an early crop sow mid-spring, roughly 6 weeks before the last expected frost in your area.
